Object variable not set when trying to replace the owner of the mail db

I accidentally misspelled a user’s name and after fixing this small issue, I get a pop up window saying:

"Object variable not set

On Module: Click

Line 30

On Method: Click"

when I’m going to change the name of the owner of the mail db to her correctly spelled name. What can I do?

I am unable to reproduce your problem.

Could you please specify the exact steps that you followed?

Thanks.

Sure.

I opened the mail db then

  1. I went to More → Preferences

  2. clicked on “Change”, next to where the misspelled name was on the Owner field

  3. clicked “OK” as I accept that by changing the owner of the mail db, some features may disappear

  4. chose the correct name from the company address book → OK

and then I got the pop up.

Sorry, double post.

Subject: Preferences error

I am not able to reproduce your problem, either by using More/Preferences or File/Preferences to generate the dialog box.

After receiving the error, if you display Preferences again, do you see the name change?

If you change a different item in Preferences (such as “spell check messages before sending”) without changing the name, do you still get an error when you click OK?

At first, the correct name was displayed, then I clicked OK to go out. When I went in to see if the change went through, the incorrect name was back.

Eventually I got tired of this, and someone else took care of the problem. Thanks for your help tho
